I'm level 23 with only one level left of my Master's tutorial. I've specced into the Musician class, specifically in the Composer subclass. My tutorial is in [Music Scoring for Visual Media] and I'm generally aiming to go into the [Video Game Composer] niche. There are a couple concerns I have about my build though, and its viability for the future

For one thing, as satisfying as this class is to play sometimes, my character just seems to have so many difficulties with it. For one thing I think I'm not as great at this as other players, though I'm aware this can be attributed to the [Imposter Syndrome] debuff (side note: why the fuck would the devs even add that feature??). Secondly, my character runs out of stamina really easily, and keeps aquiring the [Burnout] debuff. For some reason I've been stuck with that specific buff for a long time now, and it's so debilitating when your main skill directly feeds off your [Creativity] stat. Anyways, it's hard and I'm not sure how sustainable this build is

I really don't know what I'm going to do once I'm out of the tutorial. Maybe do some side quests of the [Entry Level] variety, because I don't know how I'm going to do actual proper quests until I get my build figured out. I'm also not sure what region I'm going to live in. I'm in the North American server, and there are a lot of options, but I'm trying not to worry about that choice since it's not relevant yet. I did recently find another player that I'm partnering up with, so we might start co-op together if things work out between us, though that's a high cost commitment.

Sometimes I wish I had specced into a different build, one that was more viable, but the higher-end tutorials are expensive as fuck, so I don't even want to think about replaying them. I'm going to try to make the best I can with the build I have. It's stressful, but this game isn't an easy one.

Anyway, just needed to vent. Thanks for reading :D

It doesn’t deal a lot of damage but it gives me a temp [Itch] debuff which sucks, I use the [Anti-itch cream] power-up but it doesn’t work sometimes because the lv of the player is too high.

After skipping part of the tutorial at level 16, they haven't left freeplay mode. We hadn't talked in a while and recently met up. I assumed they had either entered one of the more advanced tutorial modes to get increased experience, or approached one of the [employer] players to get quests to earn some in-game currency. We are level 22 now and they haven't left their original spawn point, still staying in their trainers base.

Freeplay can be fun if you find something good to do, don't get me wrong. And I know they aren't that behind on completing story mode. But I worry they won't get back on track with the main quests. They seem to be stuck on the [computer] mini game.

Theres just a lot more you can do in this game, they never go outside as the game suggests. I worry that they are missing the full potential to the game when they spend all their time on a pointless mini game

So I'm a kitten player, about 9 weeks old.

The human players have set up a room for me and a fellow kitten player in their [house] filled with tons of food, water, and things for me to [scratch]. What worries me though is what's outside the door. Every now and then my sister and I hear a deep, menacing growl along with occasional whining and repeated scratching noises as they try to get inside the door. It sounds big, like really big. The human players say we'll meet after they kill all the [flea] players, but I think we're gonna be sacrificed to the creature outside. What do we do?

I use the [Phone Item] quite frequently and don't even enjoy it anymore. Mainly on the site [Youtube] and [Discord]. There are questlines I really want to focus on, but I lack motivation most of the time and end up time warping the day away by using these items. Any advice?

I started working on my [communication skills] stat around a year ago. I can hold a conversation, but I'm bad about sticking to one subject that nobody is interested in and usually go on a rant about it every conversation I have. I don't realize I'm doing this until the conversation is over and when I'm actively trying not to, I end up not speaking because I overthink everything and don't want to start ranting. Any way to fix this?

You know the game School System right? The introduction game where you find out what kinda playstyle you like. I'm kinda good at it, and last month is when I finished World 10, The Final Curve - finally it's over, awful to see so many teammates picking the worst routes.

I barely finished the History quest 40%, probably why they don't recommend a 100% run on this one. But I beat it, which in the Spanish server is a notable archievement!

After W10 we unlocked two possible paths - I personally went on for World 11 "Every Tenth Counts", since I do like the challenge to be able to unlock a cool ending, even if the French sidequest is now a mandatory one for it. I could run the server someday...

I'm glad that next world has better character customization tho; such a huge change of pace from how monotonous it was from tutorials to W10.

World 1 and 2, pretty fond of the player guiding us most of the match. Late W3 and World 4 was pretty fun tbh. World 7 was weird all thanks to THAT event. And Worlds 8 and 9 were more enjoyable than I thought.

Guess I should pick up some skills for when my server starts the game next September!

dog mains, is it true when a human main pats you, you get a buff? preforming the pet a dog activity buffs my stat's for a short time, and I was wondering if it also buffs you to? also, offering all dog mains a pat!

I mean, what do you guys do? Get one of those job things to get some money? What else do you even do? I'm still in the tutorial stage, in around mid 'teenage' levels, but I already try to make the tutorial stage more interesting than I feel like a lot of players do.

Lifelong user of Hyperrealistic Human POV VR Skinsuit here. Been having a great time, except for this one in-game buffering issue that started really early on, like around level 6. Something in the actual hardware, too many wires transmitting too much info for the console to process all at once. Anyway, the devs were using the education they had at the time & weren't equipped to solve the issue, & a little stubborn to take advice from collaborators. So now at level 29 I'm finally seeing to it myself. Turns out, this particular unintended feature is super common & there's tons of upgrades for it, & even technicians who will help you with your gear. Went with the "Velocity Rx" package, & ooh-wee. Let me tell ya. It's like the RAM has doubled. I swear I wasn't able to do this smooth of a run before, & I haven't crashed even once from trying to save during/after a quest. A truly novel concept for me. You would not believe the amount of times I've had to restart the most basic tasks due to a faulty save function. The "Real Time" feature actually works?? I used to check the time & it would say "12:30" & look away for maybe two minutes, & it would suddenly be 4pm. I couldn't even activate it before the upgrade. The label was grayed out. It feels like somehow this has also given the Multitasking function a patch notes update? Maybe? It just seems more intuitive & organized, less chaotic & lucky.

Has anyone else had this feature or gotten an upgrade for it? Would love to hear y'alls thoughts.

TL;DR got on ADHD meds at almost 30. Game changer.
